| While it is reported that 94% or more of African-Americans support President Barack Obama over Mitt Romney in the upcoming national presidential election, the rarely-spoken question is: Are many African-Americans only voting for Obama because he’s black? While the response is often that African-Americans have historically voted Democratic in recent decades anyway, one must admit that in 2008 and 2012, the percentage of African-Americans voting for the first black president is extraordinarily high.

So Black on Black voting IS OK for Progressives.
And “Color of Skin” trumps “Values” (content of character).
Is that what MLK (Republican, I might add) would say!
Non-Black voting on values is NOT OK for Progressives.
And THAT is "racist"?
That is blatantly NOT TRUE!
Progressives will now need to openly declare their "Hate-Card" of Race in this election.
Time for people to get off the "Big Government Plantation" and not let their “Black on Black” vote be taken for granted anymore!

MLK means nothing to black people any longer. They invoke his name only when it is to their advantage and look the other way, or scream racism, when it is not.
When in doubt, cry racism.

Blacks support Jackson, Jackson Jr., Sharpton, Farrakhan and other nefarious black leaders. Obama is just yet another! I am sorry to say this but the black culture in this county is the most irresponsible of all the cultures! They are their own worst enemy aided and abetted by white guilt and misguided help in the form of aid and lower performance standards.

In 2008, I got it. Blacks near universally voted for Obama, yes, because he was black (at least partially) out of ethnic pride and many whites pulled Obama's lever to show they weren't the racists their parents were. It was Okay - McCain was never a great contrasting philosophic alternative. And I understand that O inherited a mess which was not truly just Bush's fault but the consequence of decades of idiocy. But for blacks to vote again for him when Obama has been not just a terrible leader but specifically a disaster for the black community and a politician who espouses values which are the moral opposite of the black community, then I say they aren't just black racists but guilty of elevating their racial identity above all other personal values.

"Other black 'right'-leaners tend to survive their open embrace of the Republican Party such as Herman Cain, Allen West, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and Colin Powell – when he leaned one way or the other"
Apparently Scott is new here: all of the above were excoriated for their support of Republican issues.

FTA: the rarely-spoken question is: Are many African-Americans only voting for Obama because he’s black?
Not exactly "insight of the day," is it?
FTA: one must admit that in 2008 and 2012, the percentage of African-Americans voting for the first black president is extraordinarily high.
Another non-contender for that title.
FTA: [Dash is] extremely saddened and upset that she is being criticized for her choice for president.
How about all the death threats, Scott? Is she maybe "saddened and upset" by them [which you somehow don't mention]?
This article is more-tepid than bathwater drawn for a newborn. Man up, Paulson. Man up.
FTA: I would hope that the majority of Americans don’t want elections to be settled by a candidate’s race because a “minority” would never get in.
I know he starts there on the office of President, but decades of repellant, illegal racial gerrymandering demand mentioning. They demand mentioning.

This exclusive week-long forum kicks off with this question: Some say the union movement helped build America’s Middle Class but the economy and times are changing.

Imagine a rule in your family which says you can open your Christmas gift any time from November 20 to December 25. Or, how about being told you can open your birthday present any time from 35 days before your birthday until your birthday. It’s more than kind of ridiculous on several levels. Now, this early voting trend that is sweeping the country is getting as ridiculous as being gifted for Christmas or one’s birthday 35 days in advance. Naturally, there is much “shifty” benefit for the Democrats since they’re pushing for it.

President Barack Obama epitomizes the need for a one-term limit for presidents of the United States. However, the term needs to be six years instead of four years. While there are several reasons for the need for a president not having the ability to run for election again, the primary reason has been made obvious by President Obama. The reason, of course, is the time spent on the campaign trail compared to the time spent doing the job that he was elected to do.

There were so many blatant signs of Obama-favored bias displayed by CNN political correspondent Candy Crowley that one scarcely knows where to begin. Now that the second presidential debate is history – being legitimately called the liveliest presidential debate in history – people are having time to look past the drama and way past the performances to see what actually happened that caused such a difference between Romney’s huge win in the first debate and his extremely narrow win in the second.

Though most people probably don’t even know who John Hofmeister is, federal politicians know very well who he is and are finding out that he is royally-angered about the current gasoline prices throughout the United States being so incredibly high. He has been going public in the recent past via various television and radio interviews in which he is bluntly telling how he warned President Barack Obama, other politicians, and government officials that the current gas prices could have been totally avoided if the Obama administration only would have given his experienced-knowledge a chance.

The election of 2012 apparently has a “gate” of its own now that the scandal is finally making its way to some headlines from coast to coast – and probably even in the “foreign” press as well. Despite reported efforts on the part of the Obama White House to stop the story from spreading, it is now becoming common knowledge that there are improprieties in the massive donations being given to President Barack Obama regarding his reelection efforts in 2012.

According to a news report, President Barack Obama is bored with the entire debate process. He allegedly told a political volunteer: “They’re making me do my homework. They’re keeping me indoors all the time… It’s a drag.” Of course he’s bored. Compare what he’s doing this week to what he’s been doing for countless weeks prior to this week. In recent past weeks, when he could have been leading the country and improving the dismal facts and figures he must now defend, he has been having one hell of a great time.

Now that the polls say that President Barack Obama’s poll numbers with women and the Hispanics in the United States aren’t as exceedingly high as they were previously, there is suddenly a new benefit to the farming community who are either female or Hispanic, who feel they were discriminated against. How ironic that this benefit to females and Hispanics is being offered right before President Obama’s reelection date. One might logically think that the timing of this benefit to these groups – who vote – is planned to sway their presidential election vote on November 6.

The good news is that high school students don’t bow down to a liberal government and get pushed around without expressing their concerns – at least when it comes to getting their fill at lunch time. Their voice is loud and strong when they are rebelling for the right to eat. The bad news is that the United States Department of Agriculture and First Lady Michelle Obama may be a tough team for the young people to cross.

Last Friday, GOP presidential challenger Mitt Romney disclosed his tax returns and health records. In particular, the release of the tax information was a pleasant surprise – released without pre-announcement or fanfare. Romney gave information that dates back to 1990 which ought to close Harry Reid’s mouth for a time – but, of course, no guarantee that he’ll finally sit and listen for very long. Now that the political “left” has seen what it has been screaming for – and now that the “left” has finally learned what they really knew all along,

Life News reports: ...a former employee described how she heard a baby scream during a live-birth abortion. Abortion clinic employee Sherry West described an incident which "really freaked (her) out" and related to the jury how she heard a child who was born alive following an abortion scream.

Jay Rockefeller, one of the towering architects of Obamacare, on Tuesday openly criticized program managers for not moving quickly enough to build the system, warning that if it gets off to a bumpy start it will just get worse. Decrying the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as way too complex, he warned the acting Medicare director that Obamacare is "so complicated and if it isn´t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse."

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Ferguson said he sent a March 28 letter to owner Barronelle Stutzman asking her to reconsider and supply flowers to customer Robert Ingersoll. Through an attorney, Stutzman declined to change her position.“As Attorney General, it is my job to enforce the laws of the state of Washington,” said Ferguson. “Under the Consumer Protection Act, it is unlawful to discriminate

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius conceded Monday that implementing the Affordable Care Act has been more complicated and frustrating than the Obama administration expected, largely due to Republicans who have opposed the law´s state-based exchanges and Medicaid expansion. "The politics has been relentless and that continues," Sebelius said. "There was some hope that once the Supreme Court ruled in July, and then once an election occurred there would be a sense that, ´This is the law of the land, let´s get on board, let´s make this work.´"

Myron Ullman, Johnson´s predecessor at JCPenney, takes office as CEO. When Johnson was initially wooed by JCPenney, it was to serve as CEO with Ullman as Chairman. In January 2012, Ullman was unceremoniously removed from the board. Gone with Ullman was any control the Board of Directors had over Ron Johnson and his control of JCPenney resources.

The state of California is reportedly considering legislation that would force group insurance policies to provide infertility treatment for gay and lesbian couples. Two men who have sex with each other for a year and do not produce a baby would be considered “infertile” under the proposed legislation. So would two women having sex. Since biology does not allow those without a uterus to conceive or those without a penis to impregnate, every year-long gay couple in California would potentially be covered by this new provision of California law.
